Looks like the legal battle for Leo DiCaprio has just been ignited. The woman accused of slashing Leo’s face with a drinking glass lashed out at the actor in court Monday morning, claiming Leo started the physical dispute and the whole thing is a cover-up, according to TMZ.

The alleged attacker Aretha Wilson’s lawyer has demanded a toxicology report on Leo the night of the incident, as well as his medical records, TMZ reports.

“These are outrageous lies and a classic case of trying to re-victimize a victim in a violent assault.”

“That this woman became a fugitive from justice for 5 years to avoid responsibility and that Mr. DiCaprio has fully cooperated with the prosecution from day one should say everything,” Berk adds. “This woman has a long criminal history of violent criminal attacks on others and should be given no attention whatsoever.”
